Contents/Summary
- Summary
- This black comedy centers on a train traveling from Belgrade to the provinces. Two petty criminals, brothers Lemi and Kiza are broke, and are transporting their dead grandfather to a hometown funeral as if he was a regular passenger. A small-time drug dealer, Limeni, is traveling with a 7-year-old Ana, whom he received as a guarantee for a drug payment from her addict mother. But he is much more concerned with beautiful Marija sitting opposite and his packet of drugs which, in fear of the police, he slips into the “sleeping” grandfather’s pocket. When the four of them leave for the restaurant car, train makes an emergency stop and a suitcase falls on grandfather’s head. The remaining passengers think that the old man has just been killed, and since no one wants the police around, they throw him out of the window and the search for grandfather ensues. In a series of comical situations the corpse is constantly moved around with the group trying to follow its trail. When a policeman finally shows up, he only makes things worse by treating everyone as a suspect. According to the rules of the genre, everything ends up nicely, with grandfather properly buried at last, and Limeni and Marija happily falling in love.
